Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night – 3 characters revealed, latest Ask IGA video

Yesterday, the latest Kickstarter update for Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night was posted, and in this one, three characters are introduced. There’s also the latest Ask IGA video, and some other goodies.

Let’s start with the three new characters:

  • Dominique Baldwin (ドミニク・ボールドウィン), Age: 25

An exorcist dispatched by the church, she supports Miriam as the shopkeeper. She speaks in a posh way, but she treats everyone kindly. While the church believes Miriam and Gebel to be demons, Dominique trusts them as human beings. In order to foil Gebel’s ambitions, she asks her old friend Johannes to summon Miriam.

  • Alfred (アルフレッド), Age: 57 

Alfred is one of the alchemists responsible for the demon-summoning uproar ten years ago. He was Johannes’s mentor, and a father figure to both Johannes and Miriam, but he’s lost his former self as he heads to the castle seeking the Book of Logaeth in Gebel’s possession. Quite and intelligent, Alfred’s alchemic ability was unmatched even among his fellow alchemists.

  • Anne Knolles (アン・ノールズ), Age: 12 

A village girl whose parents were murdered. Anne was saved by Dominique and Miriam when demons attacked her village. When Dominique is out of town, Anne looks after the shop. She is a bright and cheerful girl.

In the Kickstarter update, Koji Igarashi mentions that he’s yet to choose the voice actors for the various characters. Also, he explains that the team has begun working on parts of the game that were available as backer rewards (enemy and weapon designs). It turns out some backers did not reply to the team’s emails: if you’re one of those, make sure to contact them asap!

In the next update, Koji Igarashi hopes to show off an update stage. In the mean time, here’s the latest episode of Ask IGA!

Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night (Switch) will be released next year worldwide.
